Hello,

I have yet another question that has been bothering me for some time, I am posting login information to my .asp file (username and password), just a regular post, once it gets to asp it gets encrypted and it should be safe from there on but going from flash to asp, I dont know much about security there, please let me know how secure it is and if its not secure at all what can I do to make it more secure?
(does https certificate take care of that? if yes then, are there other more affordable options?)

Thanks in advance..

Flash activate on the client side and the data it gets from the server is unencrypted unless you are using HTTPS.

Alright, sounds like I need an https certificate to make this secure..
I wish those things didnt cost as much http://community.discountasp.net/emoticons/sad.gif
